Posted by chuchubob on Tue Sep 4 19:07:13 2012 The Blue Line Orient Heights station is being rebuilt.Each heavy rail line has its own equipment and its own shop. The Blue Line shop is at Orient Heights, which the ERA visited Tuesday morning. wire car The Silver Line is "Bus Raid Transit" using dual mode hybrid/electric trolley bus vehicles which operate as hybrids on the surface and as trackless trolleys in the tunnel. The mode is changed at Silver Line Way station. |
